I am concerned about this removal until DJ gets us some feedback on
offline deployment of J2EE plans.

I think we all agree that we are dumping modules/assembly before 1.0
comes out, and I'm fine with removing it in advance of finishing off
the other pieces.

jetty/tomcat only builds from assemblies rather than the modules/

assembly build today.
Here's what I know is missing from the new assemblies/* builds:
scripts
schemas
online deployer tool
hot-deploy config
Of these the most problematical is the online deployer tool.
Offline deployment won't work the same way with the new builds, and
I'm working on a separate replacement. However offline deployment
is used in the modules/assembly build.
I'd like to remove the modules/assembly build now and work on these
missing pieces without having to maintain 2 build systems.
Opinions?
BTW I'm planning to do the scripts by building a jar containing them
and unpacking in each assembly, and the schemas by (probably)
enhancing the assembly plugin.
thanks
